Focus TDCi ako consumes diesel like a 1.1 engine performs like a sports car.

**niky** · February 12th, 2009 12:36 PM

Engine - Focus TDCi > Civic > Lancer/Mazda/Subie/Corolla
tranny (automatic) - Focus TDCi > Mitsubishi Lancer EX GT-A > Civic (everything else is blech)
tranny (manual) - Civic > Lancer/Subaru > Focus TDCi
space - Civic > Lancer > Altis > Mazda3/Focus > Subaru
suspension (performance) - Focus TDCi / Subaru Impreza / Lancer > Civic > Mazda3 > Corolla
suspension (comfort) - Corolla > Focus / Impreza / Mazda3 > Lancer > Civic
looks - Lancer
ergonomics - They're all pretty good
pricing - They all cost the same, right? Want a bargain, though, Focus 2.0 Flexfuel.
fuel efficiency - Focus TDCi >>> Corolla > Civic > Mazda3 / Subie / Lancer
overall package - Lancer / Focus

Whats your pick? - Focus TDCi. Or, if I had to buy a gasser, either the Subaru (if I didn't care about rear legroom) 2.0R MT or the Lancer (if I did) EX GT MT.

All the 2.0s cost 1m or over. Except the Focus 2.0 gasoline hatchback.

Engine - Focus
tranny - Focus
space - Civic
suspension - Focus (sport) or Altis (comfort)
looks - Focus
ergonomics - Altis
pricing - Altis
fuel efficiency - Focus

overall package?
Focus is great due to TDCI power. But ride isn't very comfortable for passengers due to sporty handling. Also, replacement has been announced for 2010 .

Lancer EX GT is ok except for tiny boot space. Also, price went up to 1.375M recently.

MAzda 3 - Replacement has been announced already.

Subaru - Interior space impractical.

Civic - Great package except for its very hard and uncomfortable leather seats.

Altis - Not the best in all criteria but still the best package overall due to comfort/luxury features, good value, yet it costs less than everyone else except the Mazda.
